Join CAG to work with professional support group of Modi’s election campaign?

Not that I’m saying Headlines Today has a political agenda or anything, just that in the show where they happened to discover this shocking skeleton in Somnath Bharti’s closet so skillfully, that no one actually knew the law he broke, there seems to be a permanent slot sold to an advertisement that tells people to “join CAG” to support Modi’s election campaign.

Narendra Modi’s ad targeted to slot next to show slandering Somnath Bharti. Verified from anonymized IPs – not my cookie.

I have checked this through several proxies and browsers. The ad isn’t targeted to my browsing.

Making a wild guess here that Modi’s publicity team doesn’t actually monitor every single url on the site, so someone handling Headlines Today advertising clearly had to mark that slot targetable and bring it to the attention of someone who will pay to show an ad there. You tell me, paid media or unpaid media?

Obviously, it will be some propaganda site, but an ad that pretty much implies CAG works for Modi till you click on it and it turns out to be yet another Modi fan club? Hmmmm….. appropriate for a show claiming to expose scams I guess.

Those who know what CAG is would be disgusted by this advt. Those who don’t know what CAG is, wouldn’t really care. Only NaMo blind followers will click and like it. But they are already going to vote for him. So how does this target new audience in any way? – Bad Marketing. If I were the client, I would have fired them for such a blatant waste of money.
